#Sheppresent
BMac "BMac" joined Tommy Jackett and Josh Janssen on Episode 407 (27 July 2019) — "#Sheppresent". Kel Wolfe and Bmac join us on Weekend Banter! We talk about all things #Sheplife, radio, hip hop and Bmac's giant Costco bear.
Bmac is the show's official hype man and tour manager.
We're actually not too sure what Bmac does, but it's got something to do with a record label. You'd be hard pressed to find someone who knows as much about music as him. He's a creative director and music label rep.

Verbatim from the transcripts — each quote links to the moment.
What makes a regional bar or entertainment venue successful?
BMac says success comes from treating people really well, since locals in a new town are often reluctant to support outsiders at first; showing them love and consistency (along with cheap drinks) builds loyalty and repeat business.
BMac recounts coming home to find a giant stuffed bear (apparently rescued from hard rubbish by his housemate) propped up in his bed holding a bottle of wine, which became a conversation piece in his apartment until it was eventually thrown out to make room for a bar.
BMac explains how he first connected with a new Shepparton breakfast radio host (Josiah) by arranging a free tray of drinks and shots for him and his friends through his record label/venue connections, which Kel credits as the start of their friendship.
